In a happy news for the human contestants of Salman Khan-hosted reality show Bigg Boss 18, there was no eviction in the first Weekend Ka Vaar. Instead, the makers freed donkey Gadhraj from the house and declared it as the first eviction of the season. Bigg Boss 18 started on October 6 and the donkey Gadhraj was welcomed as the 19th contestant. The donkey belongs to advocate Gunaratna Sadavarte who is a contestant on the show. However, the move by the makers to keep a donkey inside the house in captivity did not sit well with animal welfare organisations including PETA who raised objections.
After organisations like PETA ( People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) and PFA (People for Animals) raised objections, Bigg Boss decided to free the donkey from the house. While the animal was removed form the show on Thursday, the makers announced the same on television during the Weekend ka Vaar as its first evicted contestant.
